 Solution

Convergence at $z_0$ implies that the terms $a_n{z}_0^n$ form a bounded sequence: $|a_n{z}_0^n|\le M$ for some $M$. If $|z|<|z_0|$ and $r=|z/z_0|<1$, thenComparison with the convergent geometric series $\sum M{r}^n$ proves absolute convergence. The case $z_0=0$ is vacuous.

The radius of convergence is the number $R\in [0,\infty ]$ such that a power series converges absolutely for $|z|<R$ and diverges for $|z|>R$, with boundary behavior considered separately.

TakeThen $\sum v^n/n$ is the convergent alternating harmonic series, whereas $\sum w^n/n$ is the divergent harmonic series. Thus $\sum z^n/n$ converges at a point of modulus one and diverges at another point of modulus one. It follows that
